Linda,
The last thing you want to dois raise the center of gravity. The
'trick' is to use a large 'dowel' (something between a closet rod and
a basball bat) to genty nudge or roll the fender lip out away from the
tire. This is done by havingthe wheel off the ground and using the
tire to roll the bat between the tire and fender. to gain some
clearance. Done properly, it is effective and imperceptable... unless
you have a lot of bondo in the wheel arch...'-)
YMMV.

Frank & List,
What type of leaf springs or additional components do I order to
jack up the
rear of my MKII Sprite so my tires on my mags (American Racing
Libre wheels)
do not rub on the square fenders? With a 155 tire I only have a 1/2
clearance can't I weld up or add to the leaf springs or buy
something to get
the rear higher? Don't they have something used on the racing
Sprites for
this?
